  1. Has anyone participated in GenCyber camps. I am looking to learn more, my kid is interested in cybersecurity
  2. AoPS calculus has about 10 problems a week, but they require quite a bit of time to do. Dd needed to go through the book problems I order to have the understanding for the homework challenge problems. She normally jumps into the challenge problems in past AoPS classes, but Calculus require more studying before tackling homework problems.
  3. Has anyone taken the Immersive Latin 1 at CLRC? I am looking for reviews. We are trying to decide between Latin 1 or Immersive Latin. What do you think of starting Latin with Lingua Latina vs Oxfords Latin. My son has no prior experience with Latin, I am trying to figure out what class and text will be good for a beginner. He is going into 8th in the Fall.
  4. Please help me understand, what is going on with Math education in the US. I’ve read about several states trying to do away with Advanced Math in schools. Is it social justice or are these lawmakers seeing something that I just don’t get.
  5. It’s fine, unless you put butter or some other type of fat on it.
  6. What was unsatisfactory about your experience? We are considering using them this summer for Physics, but I haven’t found any reviews.
  7. My dd has very heavy periods from the beginning. She wears overnight pads during the day. She also has the period underwear, they have been a godsend.
  8. Dd13 Junior lifeguard and church camp. She will also help as an assistant at swim camp. She also has swim team.
  9. The Canadian contest look very good. What level do you think will be around AMC 10?
  10. I am looking for math contest around AMC 10 level. My dd has been using Alcumus and old AMC exams to study for the AMC 10. Are there other contests or resources that she can practice with? I am also looking for recommendations on how to get ready for math contest in general. Math contest world is very new to me.
  11. We just watch this video today. It was long, but a great video. Thanks
  12. What settings do you use for alcumus? I have it set on normal, should I set it harder. If it is set on normal will my dd eventually get to the harder problems, just at a slower pace. Or is it that you will never see the really hard problems if it’s set at normal level.
  13. I have you tried this class? I look at it for my daughter.
  14. Sounds like a great idea. There are very few advanced math apps, that really teach.
  15. My daughter is interested in Latin for next school year. She is a rising 7th grader. What Latin classes or curriculum do you recommend?
  16. Thank you, everyone has given a lot to think about.
  17. My kids are late elementary and middle school age. We are starting to look at high school. I wanted to ask what people are doing now that the SAT and subject exams are gone. We were not really planning on lots of APs but should we incorporate more APs into our high school plans? Or DEs, are they just as good as APs. I don’t want to distort my kids education for college admissions game but what options are there to validate their homeschool education? edited: We are in CA and our state schools have decided to go test blind.
  18. A thread on the high school board, left me wondering what is considered precocious? I am looking for general opinions here. What would you consider precocious? Is it having a certain IQ or test scores. Or is it doing something early, like reading. Is a child precocious if they are reading at 3 or 2, and comprehending what they read. What would you consider precocious in music? Or math, dance, art, or sports?
  19. This system seems like it would give students at high preforming public and private schools an advantage.
  20. My nephew has allergies to tree nuts, peanuts, bees, shell fish, he also has celiac. He got the moderna vaccine, he had an anaphylactic reaction about 20 mins after the shot. They took him to the hospital and had to give him another epi shot. He was released the next day.
  21. I am hoping to find USACO resources for my daughter. My dd has already taken AP Computer Science and is interested in starting USACO. I am not very knowledgeable of coding, so any recommendations on resources or classes would be wonderful. Or even what the next steps are to get started in the area.
